Does anybody know any way to download this classic game computer version of axis and allies onto a computer about 3 years old with Windows 10. I loved this game as a kid but can’t seem to find any reliable source for it now
Just look at the software section:

As the links to this version seem to be outdated (but not only for this reason), better give TripleA a try:
